| After the anounce, that Blizzard want feedback about Torment 2+ I spent some time for rifts, bountys and UBRS. Mostly T2 and T3 with some tests at T4+. First of it is not so hard to survive T4-T6 with Wizard, Monk or WichDoc. Even a Crusader can survive it but he need alot more afford into gear then the other 3 classes (@Blizzard, I still belive Crusader should get at last 15% build in damage reduction if not the 30% from Monk/Barb). On the other hand I was unable to find any build/gear to get my DH into T2 or higher. All DHs I saw in T2+ used Demon Machine x-bows! While it wasn't a big problem to survive with 3(4) classes it was a big problem to do enough damage to be somewhat effizient above T3. I have two pritty easy rules for myslef: - If I can kill a solo Goblin before he escape I have enough DPS for this difficulty ;). - If I can kill a Gobo in the middle of 30 trash mobs, it's time to get into a higher difficulty :). Following this rules I found paper-DPS numbers which might help others: Torment1: 400k-600k paper-DPS in char screen Torment2: 600k-800k paper-DPS in char screen Torment3: 800k-1000k paper-DPS in char screen and here the problem start T4 would be 1000k-1200k T5 would be 1200k-1400k T6 would be 1400k-1600k Before someone attack this numbers I might have to clarify them a bit! If you go with only 400k paper-DPS and no xx% skill/elementel damage items into Torment 1 you will have a very hard time and out of 100 Goblins you might kill 1 or 2 with some luck! But this 400k paper-DPS is good enough to kill most champ packs and bosses without enrage timers (Belial or the Butcher will eat you!). With 600k paper-DPS you are on the save side for Torment1 but most people will not see it as "effizient" as you don't 1-shot stuff! You will have a good speed and most rifts will be done in less then 30 minutes. So how about Torment 3 and my sugested 800k-1000k paper-DPS? Well, this isn't a clear number allready as 1000k paper-DPS isn't easy to reach allready. You need a very good weapon and good rolls for your other items. BUT it can be done with only yellow items! It is posible with some afford ;). What's more like is, that you will stay at 800k paper-DPS but increased your true-DPS by useing alot of xx% skill/elementel-damage items which isn't shown in the char-screen. REQUEST: Can you please add this xx% numbers to the char-screen Blizzard? REQUEST2: Add this xx% directly to the quickbar together with cooldown/resurce cost reduction The true problem start with Torment 4++ It is currently not posible to reach enough paper-DPS to do Torment 4+ without using any exploids, well known overpowert Items or bugs! Sure, you can nibble stuff down. But it will not be fun or anywhere near "effizent". I see the problem at the monster-HP which are still balanced around old F&F-weapons with far over 3000 DPS for onehanders and even more for twohanders including the crushing-blow which was removed very fast. | ||

| Thank you for the feedback, Jahor. We definitely appreciate you taking the time to try out the higher levels of Torment, and taking the time to write out your thoughts on it. I have two pritty easy rules for myslef: - If I can kill a solo Goblin before he escape I have enough DPS for this difficulty ;). - If I can kill a Gobo in the middle of 30 trash mobs, it's time to get into a higher difficulty :). Well, what do you know? This is one of the ways I happen use to help determine what difficulty I should be in. :) | ||
